While you are waiting for getting help, here are some tips to improve your experience:

Code is much easier to read if posted with syntax highlighting and proper formatting.

If nobody is calling back, that usually means that your question was not well asked and hence nobody feels confident enough answering. Try to use your time to elaborate, provide details, context, more code, examples and maybe some screenshots. With enough info, someone knows the answer for sure.

Don't forget to close your thread using the command </help-thread close:1027500463647621170> when your question has been answered, thanks.

If you are new to coding in Java, here are some steps to help you get started:

1. Install Java Development Kit (JDK): Download and install the latest version of JDK from the official Oracle website. Make sure to set up the environment variables correctly.

2. Choose an Integrated Development Environment (IDE): IDEs like Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, or NetBeans provide a user-friendly interface for writing and running Java code. Install an IDE of your choice.

3. Create a new Java project: Open your IDE and create a new Java project. This will set up the necessary file structure for your code.

4. Write your first program: In your project, create a new Java class file (.java extension) and write your code inside it. A simple "Hello World" program is a good starting point:

public class HelloWorld {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    }
}

5. Compile and run the program: Save the file and compile it using the IDE's build/run options or by using command-line tools like javac. Once compiled successfully, run the program to see the output.

6. Learn basic syntax and concepts: Start learning about variables, data types, control flow statements (if-else, loops), functions/methods, classes, objects, etc. There are many online tutorials and resources available to learn Java programming.

7. Practice coding exercises: Solve coding exercises or work on small projects to practice what you have learned so far. Websites like HackerRank or LeetCode offer coding challenges that can help improve your skills.

8. Seek help from online communities: If you encounter any issues or have questions while coding, don't hesitate to seek help from online communities like Stack Overflow or programming forums where experienced developers can assist you.

Remember that learning to code takes time and practice. Be patient with yourself and keep coding regularly to improve your skills.

MOOC is a completely free introductory Java course created by the University of Helsinki, it is a great way to learn Java from the ground up.

It consists of two parts, one at beginner, and another at intermediate level. The end of the course is marked by creating your own Asteroids game clone!

Even though the instructions show how to configure and use NetBeans for the course, you can use IntelliJ. To use IntelliJ, simply install the TMC plugin by opening IntelliJ -> File -> Settings -> Plugins and searching for TMC. You will then be able to use IntelliJ to complete MOOC.

(the course is available in both English and Finnish)
